22. Is healing a certain proof of infallible doctrine?

What men usually call healing is not. Superstition has cured many and medicine has helped thousands --- in fact anything that we have faith in cures for a time, and if bodily pain is all we care, to have removed the method would seem of little moment.

Our Science teaches that Purity of Mind is the Source of Wholeness of body. It remits the sin or ignorance that lies at the root of all ill and thus destroys belief of sickness. One can see that this is the only permanent healing.

To remove only bodily ailments is to "make clean the outside of the cup and platter." Pills and plasters can do no more than this, hence, not reaching the root of ills, can give only temporary relief. Divine Healing is Health for eternity, for it heals by embracing the Health that is eternal.

23. What does Science teach of prayer?

Much has been written in this book concerning Prayer. We will add, "Prayer is not overcoming God's reluctance, it is laying hold of his highest willingness."

After we see Omnipresence as the "Fullness filling all," we can say, "I have received." Then must we "speak with new tongues" --- we pray in a new way.

The Prayer of Science is recognition, acceptance and thanksgiving.
